We recently installed the world-leading HyLogger-4 at our Drill Core Library, making South Australia one of only three in the country with access to this advanced technology! This innovation keeps us at the forefront of hyperspectral geoscience, significantly boosting our capacity to provide high-quality geoscientific data that supports the mining, exploration, and development sectors.

New cutting-edge technology at South Australia’s internationally renowned Core Library is set to advance the state’s leadership in research and data to support the mining, exploration and development sectors. The Core Library’s new HyLogger 4 is one of only three cutting-edge core scanners being installed across Australia. It is an imaging system that employs continuous visible and infrared spectroscopy to rapidly analyse drill cores, samples and cuttings without causing any damage to the sample. The HyLogger 4 will give South Australia another competitive advantage as we seek to cement our place in the global transition economy.

The energy and mining sector is a vital and diverse component of South Australia’s economy, playing a key role in our ambitions for a smart, sustainable, and inclusive future. In 2023-24, energy and mining contributed $7.35 billion, accounting for 42% of South Australia’s goods exports, along with generating $422 million in royalties for the state. We are excited to announce the launch of our interactive South Australian Energy and Mining Economic Dashboard, which provides current snapshots and trends in the sector.

What a great day Discovery Day was yesterday! A big thank you to the team at the Geological Survey of South Australia for organising such a fantastic showcase of geoscience.
It’s been an incredible day at Discovery Day 2024! 🌏 This year's theme, "Trends come and go, geoscience is foundational," truly resonated as we explored the new developments in geoscience that are shaping the future of exploration, investment, and land-use planning in South Australia. From cutting-edge geological insights to the unveiling of world-leading technology, it’s clear that geoscience is the backbone of the future. Key highlights: 👨💼 A heartfelt opening address by our retiring Chief Executive and renowned geologist Dr Paul Heithersay, whose decades of work have greatly impacted the field. 📚 The HyLogger 4, our new, state-of-the-art hyperspectral technology, was announced after its recent installation at our Drill Core Library, helping us take geoscience research to the next level! Watch the installation in action below! 🎨 A great lineup of external speakers, Dr Karol Czarnota from Geoscience Australia, Dr Tobias Schlegel from the CSIRO, and a unique keynote address by talented artist Dr Lee Harrop, showing the creative side of our science. A huge thank you to everyone who attended and contributed to the success of the day! From our passionate GSSA speakers to our dedicated organisers and enthusiastic attendees, we couldn't have done it without you! ✨ What's next? Stay tuned for copies of key talks and presentations, which will be available on our website early next year! Let’s keep the conversation going and continue to explore new developments in the world of geology and geoscience together.
